VISR, a Canadian online safety app, has received $1 million in seed financing from Horizons Ventures, the private investment arm of Asian businessman Li Ka-shing. Headquartered in Toronto, VISR provides a mobile and desktop application that helps families navigate technology by notifying parents about safety and wellness issues their kids face on social media. Alerts cover more than 22 supported categories. Founded last year by CEO Robert Reichmann, the startup has also been backed by the Ontario Centres of Excellence and Ryerson Futures.
